Nice! With the Vandy series, we've now got an SEC team on the schedule in 23, 24, 25, and 26

Next year:

at OU
LA Tech
at TCU

That's quite the upgrade.

I think it’s worth mentioning that Hart deserves credit for securing a home and home. Gets a lot of heat from fans who, sometimes fairly, use him as a scapegoat.

I'm guessing the Dallas game will not be played at Ford unless the stadium capacity has increased to 40k+ by 2027

Would be nice to fill that remaining home game with another FBS program that might agree to a home/home series but on short notice it would probably have to involve a school that is changing conferences...perhaps one of the AAC defectors? Or maybe a SunBelt school or someone joining CUSA as a backfill scrambling to fill their schedule? Otherwise, I see another FCS opponent coming to Ford with no return trip required by SMU.

Well, there it is, finally--a reason to travel to Norman OK to watch a football game
